Pete Bungum's BLOG - Days 26,123 and 26,124 in my journey through life.

Day 26,123 (Monday - Memorial Day) was spent at the Isle of Capri Casino/Hotel in Waterloo. On Sunday I came out $24.00 to the good - today I did not come out ahead.

Today is Tuesday, May 28, 2012, (day 26,124),  it is a windy blustery day and a bit cool. We got home from Waterloo about 12:30 pm. There was no gambling this morning. Even though we both lost a little when you figure we got free rooms for two nights and three free meals it really softens the gambling losses. If we had to pay for the rooms and the meals we actually came out ahead.

This morning in the hotel room we watched Michelle Obama on "The View." It is a delight to see her. She is so bright and articulate and inspiring to listen to. She was asked about racism in America and she really doesn't want to talk about it. She did dwell on her "Get Moving America" campaign, her vegetable garden on the south side of the White House, and her efforts to get America's kids to start eating more nutritious food. How anybody cannot like her is beyond me - regardless of  political beliefs. As an American I'm proud to have Michelle as our "First Lady."
